American Space Monkey Biography
Forged from the ruins of the member’s old bands, American Space Monkey came to be during
the summer of 2014.
“We have a history of imploding in on ourselves, quitting, and eventually starting up again.”
If you trace the steps back far enough, Cody and Kyle started the band in a dingy basement in
Cranbrook BC. Then called Fiesta Finger, the members started creating music solely for their
own amusement. A few months in, shows started happening, and the idea of being in a band
started to feel much more real. The shows gradually grew in size and success, which lead to
an initial EP, and Canadian tour. It was at this point that the first implosion occurred.
The band removed the sole songwriter, recruited Justin, a new guitarist, scrapped their entire
catalogue of music, and essentially started over, all the while still being called Fiesta Finger.
Again, the shows grew, opening for major touring bands like Protest The Hero, 3 Inches of
Blood, The Brat Attack and The Class War Kids, along with a second Canadian Tour. This all
lead to the recording of the band's first full length album, which ultimately brought the band to
its demise. Unhappy with the album, and each other, everyone quit.
Fast forward 1 year, Cody, Kyle and Justin had each coincidently moved to Vancouver.
Having remarkably short memories, they decided to scrap every single song ever written or
recorded, and start anew, as Idiot Switch, The Morgan Abduction. Shows started up again,
recording of a new full length album went underway, until the band again, parted ways, and
stopped talking to each other.
After some more down time, the idea of reforming emerged once again. Getting back
together once more, adding Adam as the bassist and again nixing every single song from
every previous versions of the band, they started back up as American Space Monkey.
Shows have started up again, plans for a full length album are underway, and the band is
expecting to break up any day now!
